To a screening last night of "Dahomey," with director Mati Diop, who made the superb Atlantique, in attendance for a Q&A. Dahomey follows the return of 26 looted treasures from Paris to Benin. A beautiful, haunted film on the politic & poetics of restitution. Highly recommended!

I know it's not going to happen, but I would love to hear Robert Wyatt and Alan Sparhawk sing together.

In late 2016, on the eve of Trump’s inauguration, we welcomed a young Eritrean refugee to our Pennsylvanian home, direct from a camp. Today he got to vote in his first Presidential election, and in PA no less.

How have I not come across @ModAmHist before last night? Full of so much interesting stuff. First up, a very strong recommendation for this essay by Julia Brown-Bernstein on deindustrialization in LA. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

I don't believe that either pride or shame are the point of studying history. But if one wants to claim pride in some history or another, if you acknowledge the power of history to evoke such an emotion, then you also admit, how ever much you deny it, the possibility of shame.
